A fuse circuit (100) includes a fusible element (110) and a feedback path
which causes the circuit to behave as if the fusible element (110) is fully
blown even though the fusible element (110) in fact is partially intact. While
a partially intact fuse normally would result in a continuous drain of power,
the feedback path cuts of the current flow through the partially intact
fusible element (110).
Cette invention concerne un circuit de fusible (100) avec un élément de fusible (110) et un chemin de rétroaction conçu pour que le circuit se comporte comme si l'élément (110) était complètement grillé alors qu'il est en partie intact. Alors qu'un fusible en partie intact provoque normalement un ponction continue de courant, le chemin de rétroaction coupe le passage du courant au travers de l'élément de fusible (110) partiellement intact.
